IPC: H03K3/84
Filed: 1998-05-11
Abstract: A random number generator (110) comprises: a first
oscillator arrangement (112, 114) for producing a
varying waveform output signal at a first frequency; a
second oscillator arrangement (116, 118) coupled to the
output of the first oscillator arrangement so that the
frequency of the second oscillator means is controlled
by the output of the first oscillator arrangement, for
producing a pulse train output representative of a
random number; and an adjustment arrangement (120, 122)
coupled between the output of the first oscillator
arrangement and the second oscillator arrangement for
adjusting by a variable amount the frequency of the
second oscillator means.

Abstract: In order to effectively reduce branch hazards without a
restriction to a structure of a pipeline, the contents of
instructions and the like during control of conditional
branching in an information processing apparatus which processes
an instruction by pipeline processing, before a condition of a
conditional branch instruction becomes defined, that is, before
a branch judgement is made, pipeline information of a subsequent
instruction which is subsequent to the conditional branch
instruction is saved so that an instruction beyond a branch is
fed to a pipeline in advance. When the condition is met, the
instruction beyond the branch is executed as it directly is.
When the condition is not met, the saved pipeline information
of the subsequent instruction is returned to the pipeline and
the subsequent instruction which is subsequent to the
conditional branch instruction is executed.
Patent EP-0941972-A3 (EP)
IPC: C03B37/018
Filed: 1998-12-01
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing a glass base
material for an optical fiber. A material for an optical
fiber and a reaction gas are jetted from a burner connected
to a material line and a gas line toward a surface of a
quartz substrate, in order to deposit a soot-like reaction
product on the substrate at a predetermined position to
thereby produce a glass base material for an optical fiber.
Dry air is introduced into a reaction container in an amount
of 2 to 30 times the amount of water vapor that is generated
due to flame hydrolysis during the reaction. Therefore, it
is possible to reliably solve the problem that the interior
of the reaction container is excessively dried, with the
result that soot generated through a reaction adheres to and
aggregates on the wall surface of the reaction container due
to static electricity, and the problem that the amount of
water vapor becomes excessive and is condensed on the wall
surface, with the result that soot strongly adheres to the
wall surface, while the observation window or the like
becomes fogged. Further, soot peeled off the wall surface
is prevented from adhering to or melting into the side
surface or base portion of a pre-form being pulled, so that
the quality of products is improved, and stable operation
becomes possible.

Abstract: Methods and systems for calibrating an array
antenna (10) are described. The array antenna (10) has
a plurality of antenna elements (12) each having a
signal with a phase and an amplitude forming an array
antenna signal. For calibration, the phase of each
element signal is sequentially switched one at a time
through four orthogonal phase states. At each orthogonal
phase state, the power of the array antenna signal
is measured. A phase and an amplitude error for each of
the element signals is determined based on the power of
the array antenna signal at each of the four orthogonal
phase states. The phase and amplitude of each of the
element signals is then adjusted by the corresponding
phase and amplitude errors.

Abstract: A method of detecting the loss-of-signal (LOS) condition at the input of a
transmission line interface when the input signal is coded. The input signal
decoding includes an additional procedure allowing the detection of loss-of-signal
condition. Since the pseudo-random sequence of the input signal
transitions includes sequences of code violations, the additional procedure,
over a certain threshold error rate, corresponding to a number of code
violations in a unit of time, detects the loss-of-signal (LOS) condition.
